        Competitive Landscape Brief

        Demand is driven by industrial production and the housing market. The profitability of individual companies depends on technological expertise and efficient production. Small companies can compete successfully with large ones because of the large number of paints and coatings used for a wide variety of applications, including decoration, water resistance, and corrosion resistance. The industry is highly automated: average annual revenue per employee is about $550,000. Imports, which come largely from Canada and Germany, represent about 5 percent of the US paint and coatings market. Exports, which account for about 10 percent of US production, go mainly to Canada and Mexico.
